Perinatal palliative care: a comprehensive approach
Main Article Content
Abstract
Perinatal palliative care emerged as an essential measure to comprehensively address the treatment of neonatal patients with prenatal or perinatal diagnoses of severe life-threatening illnesses. This care is aimed at newborns suffering from conditions that prevent them from surviving beyond a few minutes or hours, or in cases where they are born lifeless. The focus is not only on the neonatal patient, but also on supporting the mother and close relatives. The primary goal is to preserve the dignity of newborns and to provide them with the greatest possible comfort during their transition to the end of life.
